Off Market Mid-Century Magic

By Olivia Rush, July 20, 2021

Each and every client’s situation is unique. While all Sellers share the same goal – to get their house sold – there are multiple paths to this end result.

I recently had the privilege to work with good friends of mine whom are dealing with several huge life changes. Less than ideal circumstances surrounded the sale of their beloved home. Not only was it bound to be an emotionally challenging experience, but it was fairly abrupt and needed to happen quickly.

We had originally planned to take it live. The house is an absolute mid-century architectural dream – vaulted ceilings, floor to ceiling windows, stunning views – but it also needed some work. Because of the location and the style, we also knew of several potentially interested buyers.

My clients ultimately decided to sell it off market to a colleague who made them an almost-too-good-to-be-true offer. The relief of a quick, sure thing requiring little prep-work and accommodating their schedules and needs outweighed the potential for a slightly better unicorn offer if they took it to market.

During a challenging time of change in their lives, they were so grateful that the selling process was one less thing to worry about. I love to be able to counsel my clients to make the best choices for their specific needs. Congratulations to my Sellers!
